Ha, I have ADVENT - One-Winged Angel on my iPod 
I'm not sure what my favourite boss theme of all time is, since my taste changes on a weekly basis. Gotta give a shout-out to Metal Gear Rising (my current GOTY) though, since it probably has my favourite boss music of the last several years. Seriously, listen to this awesomeness.

Revengence's soundtrack is pretty godly. I like the originals before they added all of the techno stuff though.

I used to prefer the original version of that, but the way the singer's voice melds with the music and becomes sort of an instrument of its own in the final version gives it the edge in my mind.
If I were to rank all of the themes, it would probably look something like this:
Hot Wind Blowing > It Has To Be This Way > Red Sun > The Stains of Time > The Only Thing I Know For Real > A Stranger I Remain > Collective Consciousness > Rules of Nature
You're right though; the entire soundtrack is so godly that ranking them is practically meaningless. They all earn their spots on any playlist.
A Stranger I Remain > The Only Thing I Know For Real > It Has To Be This Way > I'm My Own Master Now > Hot Wind Blowing > Collective Consciousness > Stains of Time > Red Son
All fucking fantastic though. Especially the dynamic game mixing with the audio layering in and out depending on the fight. Sam's only has vocals when he's holding the sword, for instance, or Mistral's vocals kicking in on her third phase.

Demifiend needs to be the reaper in P5, he also needs to be as challenging as he was in DDS. That would be amazing.
Oh, it gets better.
I don't like Mass Destruction either.
Good taste. The Only Thing I Know For Real always gets me pumped.
Wow, that is exactly the order of my favorites. Good taste, sir.
In terms of anime, the only manga/anime I follow anymore is One Piece. It got its claws into me long ago and I'm just in it for the long haul now. It has its rough patches, but it always delivers in the end.
In terms of Persona music, the power of meguro's music is that somehow, despite being played thousands of times throughout the course of 80-100 hour games, never get old. Ever. This goes for songs in P3 and in P4. Even Mass Destruction, which was annoying at first, eventually became a song that I just love listening to. Same thing happened with Reach Out to the Truth. There's actually a fair amount of Meguro music that turns me off at first, but then becomes something irresistible. It's an amazing quality.

Just recorded a bunch more episodes with PK, and we managed to fix the sound issue! Hallelujah! Expect those up in the coming days.
EDIT: 1 more day until I can change my avatar. Time flies when you persevere!

Thanks for all of the constructive criticism. You've earned a guest spot on the show if you ever wish to record with us °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰
◜✧˖°So far, Jintor, CrazyTank940 and Sophia have earned guest spots. Would anyone else be interested in guest-starring for a recording session (potentially multiple episodes)?
Why did you change it anyway?

I and some others lost a bet and I was the only one man enough to keep my end of the deal all the way through.
I'm sorry, that was mean.

A Way of Life, easily.
No matter how good Sun may be, i'll never like it for replacing Time.
Seriously, I thought it would last for a short while... Jokes on me

I can picture Aigis telling Narukami to know his role and/or shut his mouth right now
Now, next Tuesday, DEFINITELY, Persona 5 reveal.
Guaranteed.
For realsies this time.
I think a large part of it is that most of his music uses a more typical song structure than a lot of games soundtracks, and that means that the choruses really hook you. When I think of Fog, the first place my mind goes is to the chorus.
EDIT: Lovefilm are sending me Cowboy Bebop. Huehuehuehuehue.

You're in for a treat.

Valentine's Day
the latter
I thought it was just a bit heavy-handed.
Like I've said before, Persona 3 and 4 handled romance in this kind of ambiguous, sweet, understated way. I'd like Persona 5 to go back to that.
I might have actually felt something if any of the girls called you out on it, but they all instantly trust you and forgive you, which kinda took me out of the whole thing. Not to mention that the actual date dialogue was pretty damn cheesy, even by P4 standards.
Nanako's was cute though.
The I'll Face Myself boss theme is probably my favorite track in any Persona game ever, if I'm being honest. Battle for Everyone's Souls is like right behind that though, was my favorite from 3.
If there's one thing this series does great, it's boss themes.
And I never had more than one gf in persona 4. It was one of the things that kind of weirded me out in 3 in that you can't friend ANYONE, so was happy to actually have the option in 4. And no, I can't even get through watching that event if you have more than one gf on youtube, just too uncomfortable.

Stay baller guys
This was my problem. They came across as more pandering than anything else to me.
Though it's my understanding that a lot of people enjoyed them, so I have a feeling we'll just see more of that.

We never stopped being baller.
I now want to see Aigis giving P4 MC the Rock Bottom.
I can see this. It's funny, when you mentioned the fog, I also thought of the chorus. Which is why I'm glad they used that part of the song for the finishers in P4A.
Same thing happens with my favorite song, which is The Almighty. There's definitely a solid hook in all of his songs. I think my favorite meguro song at the moment is Hunting - "Betrayal" and the chorus is absolutely killer. It sticks with you.
P5 isn't getting announced anytime soon folks, best time to just move on.
Maybe we can get her to say it-I mean.

Yeah, I really wish they tore into you for being a lying piece of human garbage. Like, the repercussion for cheating on your girlfriend would result in your social link being irrevocably changed to "0" or "broken." That way, the scene could actually live up to the hype ("Get ready to have your heart torn out on Valentines day!")

So I sketched this up earlier and I think it looks neat. I'll probably clean it up a little later. Maybe give it a quick colouring, I dunno. It's FeMC dressed as Nina from Breath of Fire 4. I've been getting back into Breath of Fire lately, and 4 is just amazing.
Yeah, I love how nearly all of his battle themes have these powerful, high pitched guitar choruses. They really sound great.
Another thing which makes them memorable, I think, is that he uses instruments like vocalists. A lot of the melodies sound like they should have lyrics, but instead it's a guitar or a piano. Fog is a really great example of this, and Best Friends is an even better one because the original version doesn't have lyrics and then the full version does, and they replace the guitar melody.

Speaking of music, fan of the Podcast sent me this.
It's a generic club remix, but I kind of like some of it.
